Hi Everyone,
This is the last blog post before my final review on the Keysight InfiniiVision MSOX3034TMSOX3034T mixed signal oscilloscope.
In the previous blog posts, I covered the Analog and Digital Signal Capturing functionality of the scope.
What is left is the Function / Arbitrary Waveform Generator, the Digital Voltmeter, the Frequency Counter and some other Miscellaneous Functionality of the instrument.
So, let's see what we got!
1. Arbitrary Waveform Generator
The scope comes with Function / Waveform Generator that is capable to generate signals with frequency up to 20 MHz. The voltage of the generated can be adjusted from 0 to +/- 2.5V,
The output signal is available the front panel BNC connector marked "Gen Out". The output impedance can be either 50 Ohm or High Z.
We get a set of standard waveform built-in:
Sine
(up to 20MHz)
Square
(up to 10 MHz)
Ramp:
(up to 200kHz)
Pulse:
(up to 10MHz)
DC:
Noise:
Sine cardinal:
(up to 1MHz)
Exponential Rise:
(up to 5MHz)
Exponential Fall:
(up to 5MHz)
Cardiac:
(up to 200kHz)
Gaussian Pulse:
And as well an interface to define Arbitrary Waveform-s:
The waveform can either input manually, or by capturing it from one of the analog channels.
2. Voltmeter and Frequency Counter
The scope comes with a built-in Digital Voltmeter (DVM) and Frequency Counter.
The Digital Voltmeter can be used to do an AC RMS, DC or DC RMS measurement with 3 digits resolution.
The source can be any of the input signals. The RMS measurements are accurate between 20kHz and 100KHz
(source MSOX3034TMSOX3034T User's Guide)
The Frequency Counter can be used to measure the frequency of the input signals, with a max resolution of 8 digits.
3. VGA and Web Interfaces+
The scope came with a LAN + VGA module, that offers the possibility of remote access and connecting the scope to an external monitor.
Unfortunately, the external monitor connection is the kind of outdated VGA, so you may need an older monitoring to be able to use it. The resolution is 800 x 600px, which is the native resolution of the scope's screen
If we connect the scope to our network, a web based remote control interface becomes available:
The interface allows controlling the scope. If we install an application to the scope, we also get a remote VNC view:
The scope also support Keysight's BenchVue software, but did not tried this yet.
In terms of export functionality, the scope offers Data and Screen Captures saved on an USB stick. I used these to export screen captures for this and my previous blog posts.
The next update will be my final Road Test Review of the MSOX3034TMSOX3034T. This will include a summary of what we did till now, comparison with other scopes, and some conclusions.
